# Bootstrapping the etcd Cluster
Kubernetes components are stateless and store cluster state in [etcd](https://github.com/coreos/etcd). In this lab you will bootstrap a three node etcd cluster and configure it for high availability and secure remote access.
## Prerequisites
First, we need to add an extra firewall rule to allow the `etcd` nodes on the controller instances to talk to each other:
```
gcloud compute firewall-rules create kubernetes-the-hard-way-allow-etcd --allow tcp:2379,tcp:2380 --network kubernetes-the-hard-way --source-ranges 10.240.0.0/24
```
The remaining commands in this lab must be run on each controller instance: `controller-0`, `controller-1`, and `controller-2`. Login to each controller instance using the `gcloud` command. Example:
```
gcloud compute ssh controller-0
```
## Bootstrapping an etcd Cluster Member
### Download and Install the etcd Binaries
Download the official etcd release binaries from the [coreos/etcd](https://github.com/coreos/etcd) GitHub project:
```
wget -q --show-progress --https-only --timestamping \
"https://github.com/coreos/etcd/releases/download/v3.2.11/etcd-v3.2.11-linux-amd64.tar.gz"
```
Extract and install the `etcd` server and the `etcdctl` command line utility:
```
tar -xvf etcd-v3.2.11-linux-amd64.tar.gz
```
```
sudo mv etcd-v3.2.11-linux-amd64/etcd* /usr/local/bin/
```
### Configure the etcd Server
```
sudo mkdir -p /etc/etcd /var/lib/etcd
```
```
sudo cp ca.pem kubernetes-key.pem kubernetes.pem /etc/etcd/
```
The instance internal IP address will be used to serve client requests and communicate with etcd cluster peers. Retrieve the internal IP address for the current compute instance:
```
INTERNAL_IP=$(curl -s -H "Metadata-Flavor: Google" \
http://metadata.google.internal/computeMetadata/v1/instance/network-interfaces/0/ip)
```
Each etcd member must have a unique name within an etcd cluster. Set the etcd name to match the hostname of the current compute instance:
```
ETCD_NAME=$(hostname -s)
```
Create the `etcd.service` systemd unit file:
```
cat > etcd.service <<EOF
[Unit]
Description=etcd
Documentation=https://github.com/coreos
[Service]
ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/etcd \\

--initial-cluster-state new \\
--data-dir=/var/lib/etcd
Restart=on-failure
RestartSec=5
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
EOF
```
### Start the etcd Server
```
sudo mv etcd.service /etc/systemd/system/
```
```
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
```
```
sudo systemctl enable etcd
```
```
sudo systemctl start etcd
```
> Remember to run the above commands on each controller node: `controller-0`, `controller-1`, and `controller-2`.
## Verification
List the etcd cluster members:
```
ETCDCTL_API=3 etcdctl member list
```
> output
```
